The platform has the tools and minimum resources to teach courses in the online mode Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
To my way of seeing one of the resources that works in an unwanted way is the WIKI Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's efficient with few distractions once you figure out where to find what you need. I have used it only from the standpoint of a student, and until I figured out where the items needed were located, it was a confusing experience. However, once that is figured out, Blackboard Learn manages an online class as good or better than other software I have used, and especially better than the competitor made by Edmodo.

The software looks dated, and the forum function has no innovated features or design. The first time I used the software, the layout and the links were easily labeled or placed, and I felt like there was a steep learning curve to becoming efficient in the program.

Blackboard has worked great at its base for managing classes and content Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Supporting blackboard is like pulling teeth as many of their features will break inconsistently on different browsers and blackboard themselves have claimed to not support Safari at times. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that Blackboard is cloud-based and be accessed from anywhere with an internet connection. It makes accomplishing work and grading assignments very convenient. It is nice that it can hold so many different types of content such as videos, pdf, etc without having to leave the site. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I think there needs to be a better introduction to Blackboard for first-time users. I found it rather difficult to navigate at first and took awhile to get used to. I found it difficult to find my notifications and dismiss them, I also have viewed notifications and found it hard to dismiss them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I like Blackboard because it is user friendly and helps me navigate my coursework, and the corresponding elements. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
As part of an Institutional Effectiveness office as an intern, there was a discussion about how Blackboard did not track learning outcomes assessment well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Blackboard is pretty user-friendly. Our IT department uploads students to classes, so from the user perspective, it's simple to use. You can add test and exams for students to complete via multiple choice, and the system automatically grades them for you. They also have a great platform discussion board threads.

While our IT department does upload student users to classrooms, it can be hard to navigate when a student is not listed because they signed up for a course too late. I also wish there was an option for video chatting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Blackboard beats the competition - hands down. I've used this software for over 3 years as a student as well as teaching assistant.
They constantly improve the software. It's very fluid. Grading is a breeze.
The interface is decently easy to use but you can miss some updates if you don't check it very often
.Likewise, it keeps my students in touch with me - and each other.
There are so many options for creating assignments, allowing students to view content, or interact with each other.
I love using Blackboard Learn.
The menus are clean and simple
Easy to navigate the menus, different screens and options
Saves time and energy than going to an actual classroom
love the ability to reach all of students or any subgroup in multiple ways.
For example, personalized announcement, group emails, meeting and grading in realtime, scheduling office hours, and getting notifications are just a few of the native services, and each can be customized.
I believe that blackboard is a good system, but it could use some improvement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It is only as good as the instructor who sets it up.
blackboard is easy to use, but if the instructor is not computer savvy (or lazy) then you can have a difficult time using the software.
Maybe blackboard is harder to set up as an instructor than it is to use as a student Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Blackboard is very easy to use for multiple functions. I am able to upload documents, sort them, customize the look and feel of my coursepage, add links, and update grades all in one place. I am also able to message students right in the platform. It's a very integrated platform that's easy to use and allows me to do multiple things in one, convenient place.

Blackboard's design is a bit outdated. The platform itself could look a little more modern. Also, I have experienced some technical glitches in the past. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Ability to interact with students and colleagues within the system. Use to track grades and assignments. Announcements and submission of assignments. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Very basic. Wish it was more user friendly and intuitive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
